    Its been a while since I came here, so hello everyone again. Anyway, a friend introduced me to a site I would like to share with you:

    http://www.landoverbaptist.net

    Its another one of those american baptist churches, yes, but this one is different. This one has a forum. So, I invite you all to take part in signing up and getting yourself banned. I'm currently pretending to be a straight non-pagan christian until I get full posting access.

    DISCLAIMER: I have no problem with christians in general, just the ones who hate me.

    I don't know what to say. How can they possibly believe that the Earth is flat? :O :O :O :O
     
  4. Landover Baptist is a joke site, I promise it is. I won't deny that there are groups like this one, but that particular website was made as an attempt to make fun of people like that.

    Here is the wikipedia page

    Having not clicked on the link to the website earlier, but now doing so... it seems to be extremely obvious that the site was a joke... :confused:
     

  6. sadly...it's not that obvious if you've been to a few other fundamentalist websites. I'm currently involved in a debate with actual people (not people pretending to be Christians, actual Christians) who are in favor of exchanging US laws for the laws of the old testament. If they were allowed to they would happily marry their daughters off to their rapists and stone disobedient children and homosexuals...

    So yeah, there are people that screwed up in real life.:icon_sad:

    There are so few people that are like that though. I'm quite sure of it. But no, I don't really hang around on fundamentalist websites. There was one about teens against porn though that was quite funny. There was one "reputable" poster who posted about how looking at porn led you to not only become a compulsive masturbator, but either a rapist, a homosexual, a person who practices incest, a pedophile, or a person who practices bestiality. And they were dead serious.

    Oh well.

    Yeah, Landover is hilarious. It's all parody like The Onion.

    Poe's law say what? :lol:

    Man when I first found that site like seven years ago i was convinced it was true and no one could convince me otherwise.

    But as the kids say, once you see it, you can't unsee it.

    I can't believe people still think Landover Baptist is real. It's obviously a joke site.

    Ahh this takes me back.

    It think it was back in 98 or 99 when I found their sight for the first time. It was the source of so many jokes at work. Good Times™.

    Ahem. Let me invoke Poe's Law:

    Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing.

    That is all.
     

  15. This is SO true!
    I'm forced to believe 75% of fundamentalists are a Poe...because if there really are that many I'm going to cry.
